Fall Virtual Panoply

The Tri-County Symphonic Band, under the direction of Philip Sanborn, will begin its 59th season with a program entitled “Fall Virtual Panoply” on Sunday, October 25 at 3:00 pm. The concert will be a virtual live-stream, free of charge, and can be viewed on ORC-TV (Comcast: Channel 9 or Verizon: Channel 36).  You can also pick up the free live-stream on the Tri-County Symphonic Band Facebook page (www.facebook.com/TriCountySymphonicBand) or the ORC-TV Facebook page (www.facebook.com/orctv).  “Fall Virtual Panoply” will be a vibrant collection of repertoire that celebrates, accentuates, and illuminates the talent in the Tri-County community with contributions from newly formed small ensembles and solos from scholarship recipients.  There will also be some past full band performances added to the mix.

            The concert begins with “To Dance in the Secret Garden” by Robert W. Smith. This is a recording of the 2019 Tri-County Symphonic Band performance at Dartmouth High School. That will be followed by student scholarship recipient solo performances from Maxx Wolski (Berklee College), Pedro Silva (UMass Dartmouth), Wyatt Crosby (University of Rhode Island), and Mason Tucker (Old Rochester Regional High School).  Brass and woodwind chamber groups comprised of Tri-County Symphonic Band members will also be featured throughout the program.  The concert concludes with an excerpt from “The William Tell Overture” recorded live last February (the band’s last performance before a live audience) at Dartmouth High School.

            Since 1962 the Tri-County Symphonic Band has been part of the cultural life of Southeastern Massachusetts. The primary aim of the organization has been to make live performances of quality concert band repertoire available in the community, give financial support to college and high school students, and to give musicians a chance to share their love for the art of making music.
